User complains model is great but product quality is dismal: nearly 100% of artifacts fail to download

A user reports to Google that while the underlying model is great, the rest of the product quality is "nothing short of dismal": Pro mode is nearly unusable with close to 100% of artifacts failing to download, and uptime appears to be below three nines based on notifications. The user compares the experience to Twitter's infamous "fail whale" era, while also noting Astra's usefulness in personal and work life.
